Whichever the case, India is mysterious and remains to be one, making one’s imagination touch the unexplored possibilities. Today, let us know a few secrets of India which are just incredible.
Floating stones of Rameswaram
We have studied in our primary school that if any thing that is less dense than the water then it floats else it sinks. For instance a cork floats in water while a stone sinks. As a contradiction to this Archimedes theory, we see floating stones in Rameswaram. Though there is a science of pumice stone and other theories about floating stones, the mystery still remains unresolved because the kind of stones we see in Rameswaram is not there in form of air bubbles to float. It is a hard rock whose density is more than that of water.
Anonymous years of Jesus in India
Unknown years of Jesus or Silent years refers to the time between Jesus’s childhood and the beginning of his ministry which is mystic as there is no reference of it in the New Testament. There are conspiranices and theories stating that Jesus spent a part of his life in Kashmir learning and experiencing the rooted spirituality of India. The new Testament marks the age 12-30 of Jesus’s life as a black hole meaning having no evidence of he being where. If he lived in India, then the question arises about the origin of Christianity. This one secret when unravels will shake the beliefs of millions.

Haunting and Unrevealed secrets of Kuldhara
Kuldhara, a village in the state of Rajasthan has a story that revolves around few myths that are yet to be unravelled. For over 5 centuries, it was a home to more than 1,500 people and the civilization practiced there was of highest order. Everything was rich with flora and fauna but for some unknown reason, people left the village over night without leaving the imprints of their existence. Their disappearance is connected to a tale of two lovers contempeted by an angry father and to the speculation of villagers having a different opinion on their rulers.
Irrespective of the reasons, one thing stands firm. When they left, they cursed the village so no one else could live there. Today, if you visit kuldhara, you just see the broken homes and an incredible silence. People have tried to build homes in the area but it was an invitation to their death.
